First Saturday beat Mr Gigilo by 0,65 lengths over 1400m and that was on his debut so he's probably improved. Mr Gigilo has some fine form including being 1,75 lengths behind Tandragee a race in which Mr Gigilo beat subsequent winners like Khetha, Rocky Bay, Storm Alterno. Rashaad was beaten 2,25 lengths by Storm Alterno and last time he lost over Scottsville 1600m to Metro Man who was beaten by the formless True Strength over the Scottsville 1400m. It is not surprising that Anton Marcus, one of the best form studiers in the country, is aboard First Saturday. On paper its no race and yet betting World have Rashaad at evens and First Saturday at 33/10!

placing/winning a graded race adds black type to a horses name,adding value to them in their breeding careers

Winners of Graded or Listed races get "big" or upper case black type in sales catalogues, horses placing 2nd or 3rd in Listed and Graded races get small or lower case black type. Obviously, upper case is the best and once a horse has won a Graded or Listed race his or her name will appear in sales catalogues like that basically until the horse disappears off the borttom of the page in a few generations' time. Fourth place no longer qualifies for any black type, not even in Gr 1s.

Breeders love black type for fillies, to say the least.< Upper case, especially.

tipster you must start actually watching races instead of just following form blindly as per your comment regarding regal racer having beaten ice trigger by 2,5 lengths before and how can it be odds on ...rashaad is a massive jockey strike and he has shown major tendencies of being very green so far and hanging all over the track so the addition of delpech and blinkers will improve him no end...as for mr gigolo he runs his best races at clwd so u cannot use him as a line horse...you dont settle yr bets so double or quits who finishes in front marcus or delpech

Im sensing a crawl in the paddock stakes ,since a 3year old won the race last year il go wth value wth thunder dance @ around 6-1.If she wins wil make a wonderful broodmare, the half sister of captain al

Its a sales term that references important winners in a horses pedigree.
The horse must have won or placed in a Listed or group race,in other
countries it includes stakes races...

Tipster,If you have a close look at the actual running of his races Rashaad is an extremely difficult ride,and IMO will be a different horse with a first division jock,but as usual time will tell!

Ebony flyer to give them lot a galloping lesson in a true run race..
If it is a crawl and the last 2 furlongs becomes a sprint, Link man will b very dangerous
